After Action Report
The Hornets downed the SuperSonics 108-91. Hornets torched the SuperSonics on the offensive end. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; SuperSonics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
